Hi everyone!
My name is Paul Caldo, and I am the Co-Founder of the St. Louis Association of National Honor Societies (STLNHS). Before we talk about what that actually is, I first want to talk about myself for a bit. I am a senior who will be graduating in the next week, and my friend, and I started a non-profit organization that needs new leadership as we leave for college.
The St. Louis Association of National Honor Societies is a non-profit organization that seeks to unite National Honor Society chapters in the St. Louis area in order to dedicate more man-power and resources to our community. For example, we as an organization will look for volunteer opportunities that require a lot of people, then we would communicate this opportunity with our member NHS chapters in order to fulfill what is needed. We currently have over 30 member chapters from different schools in our area, and while there is so much left to do, we do not have time to do so.
This is a very serious opportunity, and we are an approved affiliate of the National Association of Secondary School Principals as well as National Honor Society in general. My friend and I presented at a national leadership conference in Chicago, and our idea has been adopted by the Specialized High Schools of New York City.
Who/What are we looking for:
- Five or Six High School Students who are members of NHS (more may be accepted)
- Dedicated students who have proven themselves inside and outside of the classroom
- Students who know how, or are willing to learn, to edit a website using a website building tool (we do not code anything)
- Proven leadership skills
- Experience in journalism or photography is not required, but it is highly regarded
- Students willing to communicate with the team periodically (video chat, texting, emails, etc.)
- Overall nice people
Multiple students applying from the same high school is preferred. Close proximity makes it easier to work as a team, but it is definitely not necessary.
So if all of this sounds sketchy to you, we have a website you can visit. Just google STL NHS (CC forbids posting links)
As of right now, our current news has not been updated recently partly due to our small team. This is why we are looking for a larger team!
Every applicant will need to schedule an interview with our team. It will be casual and it will be at a public setting such as Starbucks or St. Louis Bread Co.
